Kris, I've been into woodworking since I was 15. I'm now 60 and I've never seen boards any more beautiful than what you make. They are truly unreal!
Much appreciated Jeff!
He’s the cutting board guy, from Alaska.. everyone in woodworking community knows DeVo.
@@KrisDeVoI can’t thank you enough for your content. Rock on brother.
Kris, cherish those days of "Daddy daycare " with your beautiful daughter, you can never get them back, but there will always be time for your fantastic craftsmanship in the future. Best wishes from Sweden.
Well done Kris. Well worth the 54 minutes and 20 second watch. Beautiful workmanship and gorgeous boards. Congrats on the grand opening and continue with these videos. Very informative.
Infectious watching you get so excited about the grain in the wood. Nice to see someone who truly loves what they do.
Dude. You really know how to get on the business end of it. You can really crank the work out.
I’ve watched your journey from the garage to where you are now , what an amazing achievement.
All the best from London,England
What an awesome set up you have here. I just stumbled upon your video of the butcher block restoration tonight and then after that it automatically started playing this vid. Awesome cutting boards.
Just got the two that i ordered. Completely forgot about them until they showed up and boy do they look fantastic. Came back to your youtube channel to catch up on the last few episodes i missed. Thanks again!
Glad you like them, appreciate the support!
As a carpenter, the mantage at the end with all of the different boards actually made me emotional. They are so beautiful. What an incredible achievement.
I really appreciate that David, thank you.
I cant get over that bandsaw. So NICE.
Favorite tool in the shop!
Been making high end furniture for 27 years… yep… you are balls deep now. When you own a Taylor rack, and big sanders like that … yep.. Yer in deep. Now you just need years and years and years of doing it to learn all the small tricks.. and eventually it just flows. And the wood does speak to you .
Congratulations!!
Thanks James
What you expect from your tool and wood and other tools..you take care of them and they take care of you..with end result is as near perfect as it comes. Oh well, sorry at my typing, I not as short as I used to be.
Have a great days and nights in your beautiful shop! You have earned it 🤗
Thank you Josie
Kris, I am watching your videos from Germany and can only express my sincere appreciation and respect for the content you publish. There is a) your attention to detail and quality. It is so much more enjoyable to see quality happening. Then there is the b) the amount of repetitive work that you carry out. You present it in a format that allows me to see the hours you put in without getting bored by it. And last there is c) your excitement at the end of the home-stretch. You make it look like it was nothing, but everyone knows that what you do means pain, hard work and countless long late hours. Thank you for doing what you do, filming it and putting it on YT. You deserve nothing but likes, subscriptions and countless customers who order your products!
Much appreciated Patrick!
Those chopping boards are the sexiest ever!!!!
I love the attention to detail, but most of all, your pride in your work.
Not a waste of my time, wonderful work, and presentation.
You have a bad a** shop there buddy, and your product is second to none! Glad to see things going well for you!
Thanks Josh!
Finally! Someone who makes a point, and art! of bookmatching endgrain.
I've watched so many craftsmen do their thing and, unless its a waterfall end or veneered cupboards/drawer fronts, it always leaves my slightly disappointed that people don't take that extra step showcasing the beauty of the wood through symmetry. It's so subtle I dont realise how disappointed I am, until the disappointment hits.
Watching this mans work and seeing the end result makes all previous disappointment fade away.
Thank you for sharing your craft and vision, it is greatly appreciated 👍
Kris, your attention to detail is the best there is!! What you expect from your machinery is equal to your work ethics.. you take a cellent attention
What an added bonus showing is the Northern Lights!! Thanks for including that part!
Glad you like that part!
Again, worth waiting. You guys have been busy growing and develloping. WoW, i saw northern light everywhere.😃😚🙏🙌 good luck wishes
Thank you so much 😀
But is everybody appreciating how quite beautiful these boards are! Wow!
Truly a master! Wow! I am in awe of your craftsmen ship. But a Daddy Daycare, Business Owner, video maker, husband, and you find time to capture the Aurora lights! I'm just in awe. Well done young man. 👏👏👏
Thanks!
Wow. What else can one say? Wow!!!
Excellent work Kris.
Wow, Kris! Labor of love! Beautiful craftsmanship.
I love the long forms watching you work so hard. You sir are what small business is all about. You’re an inspiration to anyone and everyone. Your heart and soul is in it to win it from beginning to end. I get choked up seeing how beautiful your products turn out. Keep up the great work you do. Yes passions turn into a full time job but then become a passion again later in life. Daily grinds are always a toll on the mind, body, and soul, but always the ends justify the means. Seeing the smiles on faces of customers that send you videos are what it’s all about. I’ll be checking out your website soon and regardless how long I’ve to wait I want a piece of history from you regardless how often I use it because when I look at it I’ll know a true craftsman is and was passionate about his work. Thank you.
Wow. Just wow! I need to create more time and dedication to myself. You are an inspiration.
I want there to be a "LOVE" button instead of a "Like" button for this video, and this channel!!!
Absolutely stunning work Kris!!! Your designs and attention to detail are second to none. The time, quality and craftsmanship you capture in every single piece is impeccable. I've watched you grow from the humble beginnings of your one car garage to the envious decked out shop you currently operate from. Well done sir!!! You should be incredibly proud.
P.S. Your daughter is incredibly sweet. I miss that fun age. My daughter has now turned 13. You have a beautiful family. God bless!!
We all pretend that this is about cutting boards, but secretly we know it’s art.
Thank you Mike!
All that attention to detail and taking care of your family too isn’t easy, but it’s worth it!
Thank you Brian
Kris, I am so proud to be one of the very first end grain cutting boards from your shop. iI is phenomenal. My wife and I follow all of your videos; not only for your Mad Skills, but because of your blessed family and the aurora, which we miss so much here in Pennsylvania . I will be ordeing more.
Dan'l
Appreciate you guys! Cheers
I appreciate you showing your struggles as well as your accomplishments. What you’re doing requires a lot of courage, especially as a relatively new father. But I’m sure it’ll all be worth it in the end. The product looks great! Keep up the great work.
I appreciate the kind words Dathaniel!
i was really really impressed with the quality of product you turned out in your garage glad you got sum elbow room .good job!!
WOOW!!,, Beautiful boards,, and i really enjoy the video Kris!,, 💙👍👊💙
Thank you for sharing your awesome project with us today from Henrico County Virginia, stay safe
When you love what you do then the results are on the board!!!!
Speechless, my hat off you you!
Your DeVotion to your work shines through in the finished product. Amazing!
Just watched 54.21 minutes of totally enjoyable wood working craftsmanship. Brilliant from Melbourne Australia. 👍👍🇦🇺🇦🇺
Thank you Adam
Kris you are my spirit animal. A shop full of dream tools designed and flowing exactly how YOU want it. Congratulations. That clamp rack, omg... And seeing what you're listening to just put the cherry on top. I am envious, excited, and love everything you're doing. Keep it up and best wishes!
Thank you Deets
that clamping rig is goals
I know I'm late, but you've got a MUCH bigger shop from the first video of yours I watched. Good for you. Your work is beautiful.
I greatly envy your glue up wall station
Time for a bigger dust collection system....awesome work as always...I am blown away by how you are changing the way normal woodworking is supposed to go...#goals
Wow, that was massive. Time flies when your enjoying yourself and soaking up all the content, details, stories, work and much more. You can be proud of your achievements Chris. I think this is going to become a new standard .... the Devos Butcher Blocks. The quality boards from Alaska.
Keep em coming
👍🎈
Appreciate the kind words Jan
coming from someone who ahs recently started his woodworking adventure. Your work, thoughtfulness and passion for what you do is incredible. best of luck to you mate! very beautiful craftsmanship.
Thank you Arie
you have a good taste of music! 👌 you're living the dream
Keep knocking it out of the park! Time for a CNC to knock out those juice grooves and handles so you can be off doing other things. Cheers!
Until you make these boards yourself you don’t realize the amount of work that goes into this.
Those pieces are jewelry man. So pretty.
Thanks Dirk!
Good job.....................and you reply to loads of comments!! A little part of you leaves with every one of those, save some of you for yourself and family !!..... Your daughter said it........WOW.
I could make some beautiful pens with your scraps. Thanks for the long video. I'm sure people will complain (some always do). I really like it.
Your 'explaining' was even more chaotic than your cuttingboards.😘😘😘
ohhh some Tool in the workshop playlist! Awesome :)
Everybody needs a buddy like yours!!!!!!!!!!!!!
True!
Kris two words describe it all: OUTSTANDING AND PRICELESS! Well done my friend, well done.
Thank you Harold
Love the shot when you go from close in creating a design to all the extra strips all laid out ready to go!
Thank you!
I ran and cared for a 60” dual head wide belt sander from about 1985 to 1991, it was constant maintenance, don’t know how many times I resurfaced the platen. Was constantly adjusting the belt centering air controls. But the quality of what you are able to do with them is worth all the effort!
I really enjoyed this and wish you the best of luck. Northern lights really made me miss the old days of flying out in the bush and Anchorage. Hope to get back up there and share some of my AK memories with my kids. I’m hoping to start up a small woodworking business when I retire, nothing as elaborate as your cutting boards but I make some nice flags, frames and shelves. You are very inspirational!
Thats great Reno... cheers!
Hey man, thanks for keeping your shorts to a separate channel! I love seeing long form videos and when short ones get mixed in, I feel cheated (just me lol). So that makes this channel so much easier to be subscribed to and I'm super happy that you're getting subscribers and business! Keep it up man!
10Q for the great journey .... your amazing achievement inspires me. 10Q - All the best from Malaysia
You are KILLING it!
Absolutely beautiful wood working.
Thank you
I’m so happy for you, Chris. I hope the business continues to grow and make you money as long as you want to do this. Thanks for the continued inspiration.
Thank you!
That clamp system is really nice. Really cool to watch your family's business grow.
Thank you!
Rianos Rustics, sir I've watched your videos many times you sir a master, thank you for the business education, I'm 69 year old wood worker
Thank you Rick!
Loved watching the video but when you put Tool on... I hit that subscribe button 🤘
Congrats on your grand opening .... The business stuff will get easier as you work out your systems, so don't worry and enjoy the moment.
look at all the equipment, you should be able to make these things very easily
Wow, what a process! These are beautiful!!!♥️ You saw an opportunity and you took it! You are quite possibly building an empire! Great job on every level! Don't forget to save for retirement!😉
Have spent most of the day watching your videos and its amazing stuff really. I'm in the wine trade and we ship full wooden cases to clients, and I know shipments can get beat up. If you haven't looked into it yet some companies make these foam "suspenders" that can fit certain dimensions. I'm sure you could order them for your standard sized boards to ensure greater protection and efficiency. You are truly inspiring to watch.
Thank you MrPibb, I will have to look into that. Cheers
Thanks Kris. Another great video. The Lord has definitely blessed you with a gift. You are a true craftsman and woodworker. I wish you and your family continued success.
Thank you Jeff
The last time I seen one of your videos you was in your garage. I see you are doing well for your family with the shop upgrade. Congratulations! What a blessing from God!
Your glue up racks are amazing..
Kris you do such amazing work, you should be proud of what you have created, well done sir.
Awesome work Kris -- unquestionably the finest cutting boards I have ever seen. Best regards to you and your family. Subscriber - Dennis Beamish Cambridge Ontario Canada
Thank you Dennis
Dude… you have seriously upgraded since I seen a couple videos… that’s so awesome and it’s all from cutting board’s
I see only one problem with these awesome boards. They're HOLY! How can one put a knive to this beauty. Well done sir and greets from GER
Man im from Poland you are amazing i have no words i would love to have cutting board like this
Thank you very much!
Widebelt sanders are the best when they are working, but they're a pain when they break down. I feel for you man!
Stunning.
You keep stepping it up a notch.
24:00 "Tool". Dude you made my day. you just went up another level..
I love this!
Beautiful wood...You must be a happiest man in the world...😊👍
Ordered my board last month. Man cant wait. thank for the video.
Thank you Lear!
Those are absolutely beautiful. To think it was not that long ago you were in a super tight garage. The places you can go!
Haven't even seen this yet, but can't wait to sit down and watch it!
such a beautiful boards. I think if I have one I would use a Butcher Board on top of these one just not to scratch them:P
I only wish I have a proper house to host a masterpiece like your work!
Bravo Kris!
Thank you Marco!
Beautiful work! I subscribed when you picked Tool to listen to. Well done!
First time seeing your channel, great production line you have, attention to detail is great.
Oh I’m not the only one to listen to “Tool” while working in the shop 👍
Just subscribed great work,
Ken (uk)
Well you can tell when someone takes care and pride in what they do. Great job!!
Thank you Christina
It is great to see things going so well. The thing I have been missing from the old shop is your daughter showing up at random times. Heartwarming to see her in this video.
Thank you Richard
Congratulations !!! MAGNUM EFFORT !!
KUDOS are well and truly deserved.
Thank you Greg!
I love the way you have setup your shop!!
I started to make a lot of custom/unique end grain cutting boards since I was 17 years old. I enjoy this hobby a lot when the weather is nice such as spring and summer. The boards that you make are beautiful 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
Congratulations on a superb enterprise and I hope you are enjoying great success. A very interesting story.
very beautyful,as all your project!!!best regards from Poland!!!!
I remember about 2 or 3 yrs ago I watched a video of you making cutting boards and saying wether you should make this a business, I don’t remember what my exact comment was, but it was something like there were amazing and you should do it, was inspiring then and even more now, I’m trying to clean out my garage so I can arrange my equipment to start making cutting boards and coaster, thank you for staying humble.
Thank you Steve
Been watching your channel for a long time now. You make fantastic cutting boards and it’s amazing to see how far you’ve come since your little one car garage/shop. Congratulations on a very drool worthy new space and fantastic tool array. Keep up the great work! (from Texas)
You hit the nail with that comment. I am envious as heck for the space and tools, but even I know that this guy deserves it more than I do. Makes me want to get up and do some woodworking.
Appreciate that!
I can't believe the amount of work that goes into making these, very impressive!
